WISE WORDS.

Rebuke with soft words and hard ar
guments.
Services and kindness neglected make
friendship suspected.
He that brings the most of use into
his life lives the longest.
Never run into debt unless you see
plainly way to get out again.
Live by the day; you will have daily
trials and strength accordingly.
The brave man is an inspiration to the
weak, and compels them, as 1t were, to
follow him.
1t is not only arrogant, but it is profit
gate for a man to disregard the world
opinion of himself.
There are words that strike even harder
than blows, and men may speak daggers
though they use none.
Let us so use the moments of the life
that is passing that they may win for US
a life that will never end.
The gamesome humor of children
should rather be encouraged to keep up
their spirits and improve their strength
and health, than to be curbed or re-
strained.
Be content to travel as you are able.
The oak springs from the acorn and does
not become a tree at once. The mush-
room springs up in a night. But what
is a mushroom? Remember there must
be time to grow.
Said General Oglcthorpe to Wesley,
81 never forgive" ''Then l hope, sir, "
said Wesley, you never sim" Lord
Bacon said: "He that cannot forgive
others breaks down the bridge over
which he must pass himself"
For want of self-restraint many men
are engaged all their lives in fighting
with difficulties of their own making,
and rendering success impossible by their
own cross grained ungentleness; whilst
others, it may be much less gifted, make
their way easily and steadily, and achieve
success by simple patience, equanimity
al self control.

A YOUNG CLERKS CRIME.
A Maine Savings Bank Robbed of
$3.50 600

$50, 600.
| The biggest sensation the town of Saco.
Me-, has ever experienced developed the other
morning, when it was learned that the Saco
and Biddeford Savings Institution had seri-
ously suffered financially through a young
clerk who had absconded. Frank c. McNeilly.
nineteen years old, who had been EMPLOYED in
the bank about one year. had mysteriouslv
disappeared, taking with him 3, 500 in cash.
United States registered per cent bonds
payable in 1907, amounting to SlS5 900. and
railroad, municipal and other bonds amount
ing to about S9l, coo Though he left town
on Monday afternoon, yet the bank
officers kept the matter so quiet that the
news did not leak out until Wednesday
morning. Great excitement prevailed as
McNeilly was considered one of the most
trustworthy young men in the city. The
president, trustees and cashier placed the
greatest confidence in him.
President GOodale was interviewed by
reporter. He says the loss is so much less
than the surplus that the bank will be per-
fectly safe, even if the amount taken by the
Ascending clerk is never recovered. The
$1S5,OOO in United States registered bonds
cannot possibly be used by the thief.
The banks statement last Nav places the
surplus at little over 500, 900.
Treasurer Kelly posted a notice outside of
the bank stating that the bank is safe and
that depos1tors need feel no alarm. Detectives
were engaged and sent in all directions A
dozen of McNeilly's photographs were found
in a bank drawer and were placed in the
hands of the detectives
McNeilly is five feet eleven inches tall,
weighs AS pounds, has dark hair, a smooth
face, fair complexion, and stands very erect
when walking He has a good figure, and
would be called handsome. When he left he
had on light mixed coat, dark worsted
trousers and congress shoes.
McNeilly was regarded by all who knew
him as model young man. He was less
than nineteen years old, but for two years
had held position of great trust and
responsibility. How great was the trust
reposed in this boy few knew until
to-day. He is very handsome. and was
great pet in society. 1t is said he never was
known to associate with any one not entitled
to say that he or she belonged to the best So
ciety. Young as he was he had paid marked
attention to young lady of rare accomplish
ments, and of great personal beauty, to
whom he was engaged to be married.
He was not only society young man, but
was deeply religious young man also. He
was found at church early and late, it is said,
and all who know the parties fully believe
that his ostentatious piety helped him more
than anything else to the place occupied in
the confidence of the officers of the bank he
has victimized.

The keen parental instinct is sharper
in its perceptions than the tutored
brain of the philosopher; therefore
when Mothers say, as they universally
do, that there is nothing like Hale's
Honey of Horeh0tnd and Tar for the
coughs, colds, hoarseness and croupy
symptoms to which children, from
their impruCence, are especially subject,
no man who understands human
nature, will discredit their testimony.

Daniel Webster on Religion

On the 14th of November, 1913,
Daniel Webster delivered an adj
deess in the Supreme Court Of
Massachusetts on the death of
Chief Justice Mason.
The following beautiful and i'm
pressiye passages are among his
closing remarks:
Nothing Of character is really
permanent but virtue and person.
al worth. These remain. Whatever
of excellence is wrought in the
soul itself belongs to both worlds.
Real goodness does not attach it
self merely to this life; it points
to another world. Political or pro-
fessional reputation cannot last
forever; but conscience void of
offence before eternity. Religion,
therefore, is necessary and in
dispensible element in any great
human character. There is no Hv-
ing without it. Religion is the tie
that connects man with his Creator
and holds him to his throne. If
that tie be all sundered, all broken,
he floats away, a worthless atom
in the universe; its proper attrac-
tons all gone, its destiny thwsrt-
ed and its whole future nothing
but darkness, desolation and
death. A man with no sense of re-
ligious duty is whom the scrip
lures describe in terse and terrific
language as living, without God in
the world. Such a man is out of
his proper being, out of the
circle of all his happiness,
and away far, far away, from the
purpose of his creation"

1t is said that out of thirty-two
young men of New York City, who
were examined recently for West
Point Cadetship, only nine were
accepted as physically sound. The
Inter Ocean of Chicago, contem-
plating upon this ominous fact,
says: ''such a note might well make
the young men of our cities pause
for moments thought. No man
who violates the laws of health can
have healthy body. How few
there are who do not study fashion
and humor appetite more than
they do the laws that pertain to a
healthful body! Beer, the cigar
cite, too much amusement, and
the hidden vices are making hav-
oc with the physical manhood Of
our towns and cities. In the
total abstinence and social purity
movements of the present period
the entire community should feel
a deep interest, and extend to them
cordial sympathy and support as
timely and greatly needed agen-
cies to arrest this race deteriora-
ton in the young men and boys of
our time.-Voice.
